Why Black & Veatch?

At Black & Veatch, you’ll be part of work that matters—designing, creating, and building the infrastructure communities rely on every day, from concept through execution.

We care about how the work gets done as much as what we build. Safety is built into every decision, and people look out for each other—speaking up, collaborating, and doing the right thing because it affects real lives.

You’ll work alongside teams solving complex challenges and turning ideas into solutions that perform in the real world—gaining hands-on experience across projects, technologies, and disciplines.

Ownership shows up in how we work. We take responsibility for outcomes, follow through on commitments, and take pride in what we deliver. As a 100% employee-owned company, employees share in the long-term success we build together.

With flexible ways of working and meaningful development opportunities, you’ll build a career you can be proud to stand behind.

The Opportunity

As a Senior Proposal Coordinator, you'll lead proposal efforts from kickoff through submission, partnering with engineers, technical leaders, and subject matter experts to develop client-focused, compliant, and visually compelling proposals.

No two pursuits are the same. One day you may be shaping win themes and messaging strategies; the next, coordinating reviews, developing layouts, or preparing teams for interviews. If you thrive in a fast-paced environment where organization, creativity, and collaboration come together, this role is for you.

The Team

We bring together strategy, storytelling, design, and collaboration to create compelling proposals that help clients choose Black & Veatch. Join a talented team of proposal professionals, graphic designers, and pursuit strategists who are passionate about producing high-quality, winning submissions.
